BibleLands’ 2006 Spring Catalogue
is now available, featuring an expanded range of gifts, books
and stationery – the ideal way to buy all your Easter presents
and help disadvantaged people at the same time! All proceeds
go to BibleLands’ 50 Christian-led Project Partners,
who work to benefit children and adults facing the challenges
of poverty in Israel & The Occupied Territories, Lebanon and
Egypt.
The range includes traditional
Palestinian crafts, plus gifts from BibleLands’ Project
Partner, the Deaf Unit in Cairo. The Deaf Unit provides
education and vocational training and support to hearing
impaired children and adults, empowering them with the skills
they need to work towards an independent future.
New to this years’ Spring Catalogue is
the chance to buy a gift with a difference. After the
phenomenal success of BibleLands’ Alternative Gifts
scheme – which has raised over £50,000 since its launch in
November – the Charity has included a “Non-Fattening Easter
Egg” among its range of products. For a donation of £9,
supporters can provide a whole month of daily school meals for
a disadvantaged child at one of the BibleLands-supported
schools.
To request a copy of the Spring
Catalogue or the Alternative Gifts Catalogue, please contact
